That's generally the case. Various library updates can only be used after ones in memory are purged, and a reboot can be the only way to achieve that. For certain module updates, they're not even a binary install. They're compiled on your computer. For thinks like akmods, that was somewhere in the boot-up process. I think some things, now, compile somewhere in the shutdown process before a reboot. Either way, there's a delay you need to wait for, and interrupting it causes some chaos. Made all the more harder by there being little indication on-screen what's going on, and some people will hard reset in the middle of things thinking the computer has crashed. > If that is the case, and that mismatch is causing the browser html 5 > game to think hardware acceleration is not available, how does anything > that requires hardware acceleration to function properly ever work after > an update?

Did you reboot after the dnf upgrade? It can take several minutes of background processing to prepare the nvidia drivers, so it is recommended to wait 5 minutes after running "dnf upgrade" before rebooting. If you boot before the nvidia drivers are installed the system may use the older nvidea drivers or fall back to nouveau (maybe depending on how far the update progressed before you rebooted). If you didn't reboot, the system should continue running the old nvidia drivers until you reboot. > I'm trying to understand why after doing the update a html 5 game > that requires hardware acceleration to run complained that hardware > acceleration was needed even though the browser was configured to use > hardware acceleration if available, but after a reboot the game then ran > fine in the browser. > You should check the version of the nvidea drivers you are currently using.

The kernel drivers no. They are most probably in use, for example by Xorg (if you use Xorg) and cannot thus be unloaded / reloaded. > I'm trying to understand why after doing the update a html 5 game > that requires hardware acceleration to run complained that hardware > acceleration was needed even though the browser was configured to use > hardware acceleration if available, but after a reboot the game then ran > fine in the browser. During the upgrade, the Xorg nvidia drivers may have been updated. Example: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglxserver_nvidia.so If your application start after the upgrade or dynamically link those drivers it may fail due to mismatched version with the kernel modules. You may see something like that in the journal: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 410.79, but NVRM: this kernel module has the version 415.25.

Is there something a ordinary mortal can do to fix this (most of this graphics system stuff is complete gibberish to me:-). You need to fix the installation of the NVIDIA binary driver on your system. Based on your e-mail I don't have enough information to know what the problem is, but I recommend posting your Xorg.log, dmesg log, list of RPMs you've installed, etc. and posting that to the RPMFusion list or NVIDIA forum[1]. NVIDIA ships a nifty tool to collect that information in a script called "nvidia-bug-report.sh" that should be present if you have properly installed the driver.

If the GPU supports Optimus then it might create problems at boot time by installing the Nvidia drivers from rpmfusion or Nvidia directly. I also underwent the same problem. Follow my previous mail: If your Nvidia supports Optimus technology then you should install Bumblebee with or without Nvidia properietary drivers. That should cool down your laptop. I had the same issue & Bumblebee helped. Basically it stops the use of GPU when not needed but also one needs to invoke the particular app to run GPU through Bumblebee. It does not do that automatically right now. You can read all this at: http://bumblebee-project.org/ Install it as per: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bumblebee Also give the feedback to the list of how you resolved it for other users' benefit.

Re: NVidia driver installation under UEFI+CSM mode
It's actually a dual cards(intel+nvidia) problem. I know there are supports for optimus in newest kernel/xorg/nvidia . According to http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Optimus/, new kernel supports seamless switch between intel graphics driver and nouveau. About nvidia http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/319.12/README/randr14.html I have not tried them yet, which seem better options than bumblebee. 在 2013-11-6，6:51，Matthew Saltzman 写道： > On Tue, 2013-11-05 at 21:08 +0800, WangWentao wrote: >> I have tried the repos version, but it doesn't work either. >> >> There is also an intel card along with nvidia card, so it supports optimus, >> but I can't disable it in BIOS. >> > > Just FYI, there is a pilot project to support Optimus here: > https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=http://bumblebee-project.org/&k=dsHy%2FVymniCD0osh6tze%2Fw%3D%3D%0A&r=6lbkzZQmkGgL7ITxCWNsIJwNXCdRDnxsPepTVOzWl24%3D%0A&m=3Qq%2B1AAJhQnjOt2h7xWd%2BDcnmbrne%2FqGqK2MjngD%2BG8%3D%0A&s=a2ea19ae2ab35b2036fd8b9ba407232d886e4779e44c3ac0edc884797b64bcb1. > I'm using it and the Intel driver seems > fine.

Re: NVidia driver installation under UEFI+CSM mode
I have tried the repos version, but it doesn't work either. There is also an intel card along with nvidia card, so it supports optimus, but I can't disable it in BIOS. I have tried a few methods: * specify BusID in xorg.conf * remove nouveau module(blacklist+dracut) * increase vmalloc However, there is only a very dark screen after boot. 在 2013-11-5，3:49，Joe Zeff 写道： > On 11/04/2013 11:33 AM, WangWentao wrote: >> However, I failed to install nvidia driver.

I've been able to replace the nouveau driver with an nvidia one by (1) adding rdblacklist=nouveau to the active kernel entry in grub.conf and (2) yum install kmod-nvidia-PAE. The last little "Gotcha!" for his problem was the need to run nvidia-settings as root (rather than from the Applications --> System Tools --> nvidia Display Settings menu): sudo nvidia-settings Otherwise I was unable to permanently activate the second monitor by saving the X configuration file.\ Thanks for the help with this! -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

Typically when you 'yum' install the Nvidia driver like this, it is built for a specific kernel. The yum command may also install a new kernel in order to match the nvidia driver. Going back the previous kernel should work (I think). Try and see, no harm done. In the case of a locked X-server, you can as you state go back to runlevel 3. To force this at grub, hit a key to see the kernels menu and select one but don't hit enter. Hit 'E' (to edit) and scroll to the end of the 'kernel' line and add '3'. Then hit enter and 'B' to boot. Then you can do the steps you stated to remove.

I don't think that's a clue to my problem, as (a) I have rdblacklist=nouveau as a boot parameter, (b) the nouveau module is not loaded on my machine, and (c) the nvidia driver starts just fine. It's only nvidia-config-display that's crashing. For your problem, try adding rdblacklist=nouveau to the kernel line in /etc/grub.conf.
